Hi all. Welp, headed over to Kemper Military School grounds this morning before going in to work, and finally found my first silver :happydance01: <: A Standing Liberty Quarter lying on top of the ground :dontknow: The date was worn off, but these were minted between 1916-1930. Found another school medallion and some clad, oh yea, my first Hot Wheel too :peace: Good hunting to ya all, thumbsup01 Eric

I love Standing Liberty Quarters! :smitten:

Literally on top of the ground? You could see it without digging? How weird!

Congrats on the awesome coin! :congrats:
 
Thanks there Tony. :waving: Yep, didn't have to break out the pick on this one. :thinkingabout: I never heard of a Standy Liberty, but I'm a fan of it now. <: Good hunting to ya, thumbsup01 Eric
 
Wow! :shocked04: What a fantastic first silver coin to find. :happydance01: Congratulation buck57.

I've been detecting since fall of 2009 and dug over 400 silver coins... but just one Standing Liberty quarter. They are a hard
one to come by... especially for me. crying01

It's a beauty, even better you found it on the surface. Gotta be more goodies hiding in the ground there. :->
 
congrats on your first find and what a find it is you dont hear of any finds like these very often thats what will make this one special for you again congrats dennis
 
What a great 1st silver to get. SLQ's are a hard item to find and a huge :congrats: to ya. Even better it was on top of the ground, no change to gouge it. Waiting on your post for your 2nd silver...........
 
:perfect10:! :congrats: on your first silver! :happy: And a SL to boot. If their just laying around on the surface. Can you imagine what lies just below :thinkingabout:. Keep detecting at that place! Someone told me once. You'll never find your first silver coin again. I'm sorry to say, that now you're hooked! :grouphug: Welcome to the club! HH!

POKIE73----------Yea, being a Standing Liberty and on top of the ground is pretty rare from what I hear.
